Mages are expected to carry themselves with honor and dignity, and lead by example -- using the virtues as a guide.
FASHION
Mages that have been apprenticed generally use training clothes that are lightly armored (or xxx).
Mages in (basic) training wear simple garments.
FOOD & DRINK
In general, Mages are quite fond of delicious meals and strong drink. It should be noted that Mages in Basic Training are not permitted to drink alcohol until they have become apprenticed. Then, they must obey their Master's will.
Meals are usually served with a variety of small side-dishes. Mages in basic training assist with cooking and serving meals (and dishes, of course!).
- Breath of Heaven: is their favorite alcoholic beverage
- Hoi-broth: a popular (and restorative) choice after a night of indulging in the Breath of Heaven
- Deychin Tea: is best served hot!
- Meals made with Ghoba Rice are common
MAGE FAMILIES
There are many old mage families on Hoylin; some that even saw the Wu Shi Temple being built by Master Seo. Generally, these families take a great amount of pride in their mage heritage.
Of course, some families are more powerful than others. It is considered an honor to join one of these bloodlines -- usually by marriage or adoption. Noble Houses are few, but they are well-known and sought after for alliances.
Families may or may not have a house elder that makes all major decisions. It is not uncommon for families to have Matriarch that continues to pass down her power and prestige to her eldest daughter. People that marry into these families and take their name and are expected to follow their leader's will.
No matter the family, it is highly imperative to respect your elders!
[More to come!]
